BUT TAKE A LOOK AT THE PRODUCTION CREWS RIGHT NOW RIGHT THEY'RE GETTING THE INSIDE OF THE MISSISSIPPI COLISEUM READY . THEY'RE TRANSFORMING IT INTO THE BOSTON GARDENS . NOW THAT'S WHERE JAMES BROWN HELD A HISTORIC CONCERT RIGHT AFTER MLK'S DEATH. THE STATE FILM OFFICE SAYS THE NEW JAME BROWN FILM HAS A 30 MILLION DOLLAR BUDGET ... ON AVERAGE, FILM PRODUCERS USUALLY SPEND ABOUT 75 PERCENT OF THEIR MOVIE BUDGET IN THE STATE WHERE THEY FILM... THAT MEANS COULD MEAN MORE THAN 22 MILLION DOLLARS.. RIGHT HERE IN OUR AREA 16 THE NEXT MOVIE THAT COMES IN WHAT ARE YOU HOPING FOR? WELL WHAT I HOPE WE HAVE IS A WORK FORCE THAT CAN GO DIRECTALLY WITH TATE OR OTHER PRODUCERS . I MEAN, WE'VE GOT ALL THE LOOKS YOU NEED HERE FOR CINEMA AND FOR FILMMAKERS, AND I'M GONNA BE TALKING THE COMMUNITY IN HOLLYWOOD UP ABOUT MISSISSIPPI AND ABOUT COMING HERE AND MAKING MORE MOVIES MY GOAL TO PUT IT SIMPLY, IS IF WE CAN CREATE THE ENVIRONMENT WHERE A MOVIE CAN COME ON THE HEELS OF ANOTHER MOVIE YOU THEN HAVE A BUSINESS THAT IS NEVER ENDING.
